I'm not too sure. I assume that if one language has a keyboard then
all of them should have. But seeing that this is Google, I have a
feeling this is the same Indic Input that they have for Desktops.

Hi,
The latest version of Android - Jelly bean - seems to provide excellent
support for Tamil display. Support for other languages look OK but should
be tested by native speakers.

I don't think it has to do something with ICS or google has implemented
this. Even before ICS, I have seen this behavior.
Most Samsung Galaxy series running Froyo or Gingerbread support Hindi
display. In these phones Hindi is displayed properly in stock Android
browser but not in Opera Mobile.

Android ICS does not natively support rendering of Tamil, Devanagiri
and Bengali scripts. It just supports the fonts. Rendering depends on
individual apps. This is a clever move from Google to increase the
native browser usage. They've implemented font rendering in the
stock browser; firefox still
Yes, this keyboard app works in all of these (the phone should display
Hindi properly).

That would make everybody with a phone elite. Whether they have a
Nokia 1100 or Basic Music Java phone, irrespective of when they bought
it. Some people, stick to phones for years. Three, four, five too.
Difficutlt, but true.

Most of them would have changed the phone once in 2 years(From 1100 to

Does this work on Android Eclaire, Froyo, and Gingerbread? These
three are used extensively in India.

This is an exciting news. We were waiting for Indic languages support for
many years. This will make possible the reach of Indic support ready phones
and tablets to every Indian.
Text input is certainly not a problem, there are many apps which do this
perfectly. One of them is MultiLing Keyboard

Srikanth, Android is not like Windows, where you get the latest
version and install. You can upgrade only if your device manufacturer
offers one. My dads Dell runs on 2.1 which cannot be upgraded. My
sister uses an Optimus which runs on 2.2 and can be upgraded to 2.3.
Also, Android is no longer ELI

That "Majority" is elite enough to upgrade sooner IMHO.

Ravi, while this is a positive sign of development, it isn't all that
great news. Majority of India that uses Android uses v2.x which lacks
support. This includes the Aakash as well.
